Chapter 36
"Bah! Those guys with five surnames are too shameless." Cheng Yaojin scolded at Qin Qiong's mansion in Chang'an.

Qin Qiong drank the drink and said, "Old Master Cheng, don't be impatient."

"Why don't you rest easy?"

Cheng Yaojin jumped in a hurry and said, "At that time, you, Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, were the first to look for Li Zheng. At that time, no one looked down on Li Zheng. You said that now Li Zheng is famous, why do these five surnames smell it? The fishy smell is gone."

"It's not likely that Li Zheng will go with them, so don't worry too much." General Wei Chi Gong, the general of the Marquis of Youwu, also comforted.

"Not really? You haven't seen Wu Xing's face, and even your daughter is willing to sell it."

Cheng Yaojin was indignant, and he couldn't lose a talented person for many years.

The people present were all the same, and to be honest, I was really worried that Li Zheng would follow the people with five surnames.

The five surnames are very famous in Guanzhong. The century-old family is the Zheng family in Xingyang, the Lu family in Fanyang, the Cui family in Qinghe, the Li family in Zhaojun, and the Wang family in Taiyuan.

These aristocratic families have deep roots, and almost all scholars in the world are included in their families and even their collaterals.

It is also the object of Li Shimin's long-standing fear.

It is even spread in Guanzhong that heroes and heroes should marry women with five surnames. It is rumored that a man's ambition is: to be promoted to the top, marry a woman with five surnames, and cultivate the history of the country.

How many scholars looked eagerly at the women of the five surnames.

The status of the five surnames is evident.

The status of women with five surnames is even more the hope of Tang men. During the Sui Dynasty, the princesses who married were also disliked by the five surnames.

Many times they don't even take Li Shimin seriously.

Seventy-eight out of ten scholars in the world come from five surnames.

How many officials in the DPRK are the eyeliners of the five surnames.

Many people are not blind, but those with discernment can see it.

Li Shimin has long wanted to start with them, but he has never been able to find the opportunity.

The status of the five surnames is too high, which is not a good thing for the royal family.

The invitation of the five surnames spread throughout Chang'an.

Rarely would a family of five surnames take the initiative to curry favor with a person.

This time, the entire Chang'an people were waiting for Li Zheng's reaction.

Jingyang County

On the first day of the invitation from the five surnames, Cheng Chumo had people deliver all the things Li Zheng wanted to the village.

Cheng Chumo also gave more than 50 pigs at once.

These pigs were handed over to the aunts in the village to raise, and the five thousand kangaroos were handed over to their father.

A carriage of aged wine is placed in the carriage one by one.

The promised [-] catties of aged wine, Cheng Chumo's shot is a carriage.

"It seems that the Cheng family is very rich." Li Zheng thought to himself, it's a loss!There is less money.

In the future, people in our village will not have to worry about running out of meat to eat, nor will they have to go hunting in the mountains for a bite of meat.

He killed one head on the spot and gave meat to the children of the village.

So much so that the response to the five surnames was the sound of pig slaughter resounding inside and outside the village.

Many people don't understand, what does the sound of killing pigs mean?
Could it be that the sound of killing pigs is what Li Zheng is implying?
wait and wait...

Some people even lived outside Jingyang Village.

Li Zheng, who was busy in the village, found two large pots at the village chief's house to distill alcohol.

"Zheng'er, what are you using this pot for?" the old village chief asked with a smile.

"It's used to distill alcohol, just think I'm making wine." Li Zheng said.

"Zheng'er, if you have the ability, you can still make wine."

The old village chief nodded with a smile, "When you grow up and become knowledgeable, you will be able to make wine."

The old village head is over 80 years old, and he is the birthday star of the village, and he can still walk a few steps with a cane.

First, Cheng Chumo brought the aged wine into the pot and made a fire underneath.

Knock out a small hole in another pot and insert a bamboo knot in the middle sideways to seal the gap.

The boiling point of wine is very low, only seventy degrees.

It is easier to vaporize than water. By boiling, the wine and water can be separated. The vaporized wine condenses into water droplets and flows down the arched lid, and then drips down through the bamboo joints.

More than an hour and a half bowls are already there.

Li Yifu reported to Li Zhenglai about the reconstruction of the village, and asked curiously, "Jingyangling, what are you doing?"

"Wine."

"How can such wine be made."

Handed a small half bowl of distilled wine to Li Yifu, "You can taste it."

After taking the drink, Li Yifu first smelled it, glanced at Li Zheng's face, and stopped thinking about drinking it.

This choking made him cough, and it took him a while to calm down.

"What a strong drink."

Seeing that Li Yifu's cheeks were flushed, it suddenly flushed to his neck, and he fell to the ground after walking two steps.

It was only then that Li Zheng remembered that the first sip of the distilled drink was the strongest, and the degree of alcohol was similar to that of alcohol.

"Failed."

Looking at the unconscious Li Yifu.

"Hope you're okay."

……

On the first day that the five surnames issued the invitation, Li was making wine...

The day after the five surnames issued the invitation, Li Zheng was still making wine...

On the third day after the five surnames issued the invitation, Li Zheng continued to make wine...

On the fourth day, people outside couldn't wait.

"What does Li Zheng mean, I haven't given an answer."

Some people are looking forward to it, and some people are squatting outside the village in Jingyang County to get first-hand information.

The whole Jingyang County was the same as usual. There were more than ten strong men standing at the entrance of the village, and they also led the six-headed and half-human high pastoral dogs with fierce appearance.

People with five surnames kept shouting to the village outside the village, three times in the morning, noon and evening, for fear that Li Zheng would not hear.

Day [-]...

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help it anymore, "What does Li Zheng mean! If you want to kill or cut it, give it a good time, the old man will come to the door to find this kid to reason with him."

"Calm down, calm down." Yuchigong stopped Cheng Yaojin.

"How can you tell someone Cheng to calm down, this Li Zheng hasn't spoken to him for a long time, does he really want to go with the five surnames?"

"If you are so murderous to find Li Zheng, you will be in the arms of the five surnames if you offend Li Zheng." Before Qin Qiong could finish speaking, Cheng Yaojin carried the Xuanhua axe and went out.

Qin Qiong clutched her forehead in pain, "This Cheng Yaojin's violent temper will only add to the chaos."

"Cheng Yaojin looks rough and grumpy, but he's actually very delicate." Yuchigong comforted: "Don't worry, he won't make a fool of yourself."

Li Zheng is a good seedling, Qin Qiong knew in his heart that if Li Zheng left with the five surnames, there would be one less such writer for the Tang Dynasty.

Once the five surnames get Li Zheng, they must try to make Li Zheng completely loyal to the five surnames.

What Li Shimin was most worried about was that the scholars in the world only knew the five surnames but did not know the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

If Li Zheng and Wu Xing stood together, it would be a huge blow to Li Tang Jiangshan, who had finally managed to gain a foothold.

From then on, the prestige of the five surnames in Guanzhong will be even greater.

This is also the reason why the five surnames did not hesitate to give out thousands of silver coins, thousands of fertile fields, and even the eldest daughter of the clan was willing to give it.

Qin Qiong stood up and said, "This old man is going to meet His Majesty. Don't let Li Zheng and Wu Xing stand together."
